Reviews
Model/Year: 2011 Talus 4.0
Pros: Matte Hunter Green color looks great, frame fits good, handles well. Disc brakes are powerful enough and the fork does what I need it to do.
Cons: Tires had to go, Kenda Happy Mediums are now installed on DT Swiss wheels.
Recommendation: I love this bike. I converted it to single-speed. Upgraded the wheels and tires. Only paid 400 for it out the door. Sweet deal! Way better than my previous Trek bikes.

Pros: Good price on a 50/50 mtb. Long lasting Shimano parts. Disc brakes.
Cons: A wider tire would give this bike better handling and off road capability
Recommendation: If you really want to get dirty, go for the Yukon

Cons: Not a fan of the Tektros. Needs rebound damping on the fork.
Recommendation: A better option for beginners looking to start the sport.
